Coming up at Norwescon 36: Let’s Make a Movie: Low Budget Special Effects
(Thursday, 5pm-7pm, Cascade 12)
Although each of us would love to have a hundred million dollars for the top-of-the-line special effects, the sad truth is that those Powerball numbers remain as elusive as ever. In lieu of an unspeakable budget, here is a collection of techniques and tricks, including live demonstrations, of some special effects that you can do on a more dinner-and-a-movie budget! Bring your own conundrums and let’s see if we can figure out how to make it happen!
